THE NEGErARIAN CRErn-

THE VEGETARIAN CREED.-The
strongest argument in favor of vege-
tarlanism is its powers as a preventive
against intemperance. A diet of
vegetables kills all desire for drink.
This has been tried and found emf
nently successful. Sir Charles Napier,
the London scientist, at lecture de.
livered at Bristol, said that twenty
seven patients had been cured of their
intemperance through the close fol-
lowing of this form of diet. The sys-
TEN belongs to Liebig, the German
chemist.
Il, myself have been a vegetarian
for thirty years and l wish | had al
ways been one. Animal food is often
impure and diseased and it excites the
worst passions of man. Vegetables,
fruits, nuts and milk, on the contrary,
are almost, if not quite as nutritious
and have none of the bad results. OF
course, beginner makes many mis-
takes. He tries to exist on nothing
but vegetables, making no change in
his diet but the disuse of meats.
The result is he becomes weak and
1t is some time and not until he has
experimental on himself and found
what best suits his palate that he
receives the real tenefit of the sys-
tenn. Philadelphia Press.

THE MEDITATED SUIcIDE.-Speak-
ing of suicides-there have been sew
eral lately, and a good many people
are talking about them-a story is told
confdentially by a worthy citizen,
who contemplated shutting off this
mortal coil. He thought Of it and
thinks he was in earnest, but this !
doubt, because killing one s self is said
to be a painful operation. and thu
worthy citizen is man who is ex-
tremely careful of his own comfort.
However, business had gone wrong,
another man had secured the chucrh
pew he had set his heart upon, rents
had been raised, he wasn't very well
any way, and life didn't seem worth
living. His wife would get his insur-
ance money; she knew as much about
his business as he did himself, and
could get along without him.
That night he took home box Of
Rough on Rats" and after his wife
had retired, took it out and read the
directions. Then he got out his razor
and strapped it and loaded his revolt
yer. He didn't know which method
he would use, or whether he would
try all and make a sure thing Of it.
He would decide after the razor was
properly sharpened. Then he strap
ped away, and while he was trying to
cut a hair sleepy voice came from
the next room:
George. Uncle John brought US a
gallon of new maple syrup to-day, and
we will have fritters and syrup for
breakfast. I-thought-you dixie
to know
The razor and pistol were laid away
promptly; life took on a more roseate
aspect, and the next morning after
breakfast the Rough on Rats" was
carefully distributed along the trail
OF troublesome vermin. George still
continues cheerful.-Indianapolts Jour-
nal.

HIS LoRDsHIP SIR ROGER.

- marka0le thai,
perhaps of modern times will be long remem-
bered and there are not few people in Eng
land, as well as in this country, who
believe that the claimant for the Itch
borne estate, in that country, was none
other than the genuine Sir Roger.
There were many things brought out
in the almost fearful cross-examination
TO which he was subjected, and the public
inquisition through which he passed in so
many varied forms of surveillance,
which seemed to point Enthusiastically
TO the genuineness Of his claim, and there
is still very great sympathy for him
felt and expressed Added to his most ad-
venturous career before the trial, it has been
scarcely less so since his defeat. He has met
with many msfortunes, but none so serious
as the one of which he writes in the follow
ing communication. which happily was
arrested in the manner which he describes.
II will be observed by his signature that he
still holds on to the peculiarities of writing
his name which called for good deal Of
questioning during the trial. and, as
it Is for reasons best known to himself
that he does SO. there is no reason
for crticising it. One of the strong
traits which won him 50 many friends and
admirers was the pertinacity and good sense
with which he held on to what he considered
right and just, and there is clear NANTES
taton of this spirit of truthfuness in the
letter quoted below. 1t is outspOken and
